In a previous post , I started sharing on how I added Firebase monitor on some React native Apps. This is the second App of such.

The set up for this second project is

• "appcenter": "^3.0.3"
• "react-native": "0.62.2",
• "@ react-native-firebase/analytics": "^11.2.0",
• "@ react-native-firebase/app": "^11.2.0",
• "@ react-native-firebase/crashlytics": "^11.2.0",
• "@ react-native-firebase/messaging": "^11.2.0",
• Plus others...

I installed firebase performance

npm i @react-native-firebase/perf

I got this error:

...
npm ERR! 
npm ERR! Could not resolve dependency:
npm ERR! peer @react-native-firebase/app@"12.1.0" from @react-native-firebase/perf@12.1.0
npm ERR! node_modules/@react-native-firebase/perf
npm ERR!   @react-native-firebase/perf@"*" from the root project
...

Technically, @react-native-firebase/app is at v11.2.0 but @react-native-firebase/perf needs @react-native-firebase/app to be at v12.1.0.

Because of posibility of breaking changes and to override the error, I used

$ npm install @react-native-firebase/perf --legacy-peer-deps

this set the perf package at 12.1.0 as at the time of this writing.

I ran

cd ios && pod install

and got this error

 [!] The 'Pods-Nobs' target has libraries with conflicting names: libgoogleutilities.a.

Then I ran this one to fix it

pod update

Now resolved, I tried to build the project

 yarn ios

and got build error. Then I built the project with xcode to see the error which I found to be

 <event2/event-config.h> not found

Carefully searching stackoverflow and github issues showed it's a Flipper issue. I need to remove flipper

To remove flipper, go to yourProject/ios/podfile, comment out

 # add_flipper_pods!
  # post_install do |installer|
  #  flipper_post_install(installer)
  #end

Also goto yourApp/ios/yourAppName/AppDelegate.m , look for and comment out

// #if DEBUG
// #import <FlipperKit/FlipperClient.h>
// #import <FlipperKitLayoutPlugin/FlipperKitLayoutPlugin.h>
// #import <FlipperKitUserDefaultsPlugin/FKUserDefaultsPlugin.h>
// #import <FlipperKitNetworkPlugin/FlipperKitNetworkPlugin.h>
// #import <SKIOSNetworkPlugin/SKIOSNetworkAdapter.h>
// #import <FlipperKitReactPlugin/FlipperKitReactPlugin.h>
// static void InitializeFlipper(UIApplication *application) {
//   FlipperClient *client = [FlipperClient sharedClient];
//   SKDescriptorMapper *layoutDescriptorMapper = [[SKDescriptorMapper alloc] initWithDefaults];
//   [client addPlugin:[[FlipperKitLayoutPlugin alloc] initWithRootNode:application withDescriptorMapper:layoutDescriptorMapper]];
//   [client addPlugin:[[FKUserDefaultsPlugin alloc] initWithSuiteName:nil]];
//   [client addPlugin:[FlipperKitReactPlugin new]];
//   [client addPlugin:[[FlipperKitNetworkPlugin alloc] initWithNetworkAdapter:[SKIOSNetworkAdapter new]]];
//   [client start];
// }
// #endif

In same file look for and remove

  // #if DEBUG
  //   InitializeFlipper(application);
  // #endif

then I ran

pod update

And got another error

<AppCenterCrashes/MSErrorReport.h> file not found

Another series of searching showed it's an appcenter issue. My appcenter packages are at v3.0.3 but in podfile.lock they have latest versions v4.1.01.

Here's what I did

pod repo update

Then I,

Deleted podfile.lock and pods folder and rerun

pod install

I also Cleaned build folder in xcode -> taskbar -> Product -> Clean Build folder. Then I Built the project via xcode and it still failed again with this error

line 2: node: command not found Using Node.js,
================================================
PhaseScriptExecution failed with a nonzero exit code

Noticing that the first error has to do with node, I quickly built the project via terminal and boom!!!. It worked. Haha

So to fix the node issue. I previously installed node via nvm. Because of that, xcode loses node path on run. I fixed it with

ln -s $(which node) /usr/local/bin/node

Ran the project via xcode again and ... it worked finally.

To continue performance set up for android, go to /android/build.gradle and add

buildscript {
    dependencies {
        // ...
        classpath 'com.google.firebase:perf-plugin:1.4.0'
    }

Also go to the top of /android/app/build.gradle file and add

apply plugin: 'com.google.firebase.firebase-perf'

Finally rebuild android

$ yarn android

All platforms working so gooood...
